"The Office" Hires Helms, Esten

Guess Dunder Mifflin doesn't need to worry about downsizing. CNN is reporting that Ed Helms and Chip Esten are joining "The Office" this fall.

Helms might be familiar to fans of Steve Carell's former employer; he is currently a correspondent for "The Daily Show." Esten, who recently guest-starred on the "Valentine's Day" episode, was formerly a regular on "Whose Line is It Anyway?" Esten will reprise his role and Helms will be hired as a new employee.

"The Office" airs every Thursday on NBC. It will premiere in its new 8:30 p.m. (EST) timeslot beginning September 21. -- Rachel Cericola
